- 160 people participate safely in water play event at Wanju Unju-yonggyesansung
A summer water play event exclusively for children with disabilities and their families took place on July 5th at the Wanju Unju-yonggyesansung water park.
The "Splish Splash Water Play" program, held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on that day, was organized by the Disability Family Care Support Team, operated by the nonprofit organization Disability Rights Alliance.
This event, which was attended by a total of 160 members from 40 families selected through a prior public recruitment, was a special occasion where only individuals with disabilities and their families, without non-disabled individuals, could enjoy a peaceful and leisurely time.
On-site, 35 volunteers assisted in various activities such as meals, transportation, and water play support, and the event concluded successfully without a single safety incident. Participating families expressed great satisfaction, saying, "It was a day spent laughing and playing with our children in a relaxed manner after a long time."
A representative from the Disability Rights Alliance stated, "Next year, we will recruit more volunteers, and we will prepare for more than twice as many families with disabilities to enjoy water play in a lively manner than this year."
